The Memphis Grizzlies made a loud statement after dropping Game 1 at home to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Timberwolves stunned the No. 2 seed Grizzlies behind a breakout 36-point playoff debut from Anthony Edwards, but Memphis responded back with a blowout 28-point victory.

Star guard Ja Morant called his shot on Instagram before the game, posting this viral video of Michael Jordan during "The Last Dance" documentary.

He backed it up by going for a near-triple-double of 23 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds, while six other Grizzlies players joined him in scoring double figures.

The story of the game for the Timberwolves was Karl-Anthony Towns' foul trouble, being limited to just 28 minutes of play as a result. Towns only attempted seven shots for the game, finishing with a quiet 15 points and 11 rebounds. D'Angelo Russell has also struggled mightily in this series so far, shooting 5-for-22 from the field and 3-for-10 from 3-point range while failing to score more than 11 points in either of the first two games.

If the Timberwolves are going to bounce back at home, they'll need Towns and Russell to step up and Minnesota as a team will have to do a better job of keeping the Grizzlies' role players in check.
